The Last Poem You Ever Wrote


I miss

the person I am -
you were
when I was with you.

I miss

the endless reveries
and winged words
we soared (and thrived) on.

I miss

watching the universes
spin by, as I twirled
on your fingertips.

I miss

the sound of the rain dripping
across three oceans
in tune with your guitar.

I miss

the post cards
from every city you’ve been
thinking about me-you.

I miss

being your heartache
which bloomed into
the last poem
you ever wrote…
